The surface of the Bay of Bengal has become hot due to the continuous heat wave. Dense clouds are moving along with the vortex. Meteorologists have predicted the formation of another super cyclone in the East-Central Bay of Bengal on Sunday, exactly one year after Super Cyclone Amphan.
This super cyclone is likely to cross northwest Bay of Bengal and hit adjacent coastal areas including Sundarbans by next Wednesday. This cyclone has been named 'Yash'. The name is given by Oman. Incidentally, last year on May 21, Amphan ransacked.
According to windy.com and meteorologists observing satellites, the cyclone is likely to form in the central Bay of Bengal on Saturday, May 22. It is likely to develop into a depression over the east-central Bay of Bengal near Andaman on Sunday, the Meteorological Department said. Gradually this low pressure can develop into a cyclone. By understanding the movement of the low pressure axis after May 23, more details about the strength or direction of this cyclone will be known. At first, it is heading northwest to the Bay of Bengal, but its direction may change later. As of yesterday's direction, there is a strong danger of hitting the West Bengal-Orissa-Sundarban coastal area.
In this context, meteorologist Abdur Rahman Khan said that there is a risk of creating a low pressure in the Bay of Bengal in the next three to four days. West Bengal's Alipore Meteorological Office believes that the direction of this cyclone may be towards the Sundarbans. Then it can change direction and go towards Bangladesh.
Meanwhile, Windy.com, a website that provides wind and cyclone information, says that Cyclone Yash may be visible in the Bay of Bengal on May 23 at noon. Which will gradually come towards the southwest of the country. The cyclone is likely to hit India's Balasore and Haldibari by noon on May 26. And between afternoon and night, Patuakhali district of Bangladesh may hit Kalapara, Kuakata, Sundarbans. The likely track of the cyclone has been traced, south-westwards from Balasore.
